So, The Black Sitcom Has Come To This?

Uhhmm, I’m still trying to figure out how to feel about this one. With UPN/WB/CW whiting-out their entire Fall schedule, the Black Sitcom was posed’ to be officially dead. But the other day I caught this preview of a show called Brothers coming to Fox. I don’t know if this is good or bad.

On the surface, it looks iffy. Michael Strahan should probably be somewhere working on a pre-nup. Instead, he’s apparently trying his hand at acting, and well, let’s just say Jim Brown is laughing inside. On the flipside, The Shield’s CCH Pounder is a legit actress, Carl Weathers isn’t awful, and Chill Mitchell, while not exactly my favorite comedian, at least adds something of interest since he’s technically paralyzed. That must be a first of some sort.

I dunno, the coon quotient looks low, but the laughs don’t seem plentiful. I might give this one look just on GP. What do ya’ll think?

Question: Does Brothers look like some ole’ BS, or could it be tolerable?

With UPN/WB/CW whiting-out their entire Fall schedule, the Black Sitcom was posed’ to be officially dead. Will ‘Brothers’ change that?
